band with bassist Corey Lanigan,
The Other Girls’ concise 5-song set
of tight power pop quickly earned a
local following. Among them was
Ben Vehorn, owner of Tangerine
Studios in Akron, who invited them
to come and record for whatever
cash they could collect.
The band spent a weekend at
Vehorn’s studio, recording what
would become much of Perfect
Cities – referring to the band’s col-
lective love for not only Cleveland,
but the postindustrial, grayish yel-
low landscapes of all great
Midwestern towns.
On songs like “Sleep A Year” and
“The Facility,” The Other Girls have
managed to fuse the real life prac-
ticality and bottled romanticism of
all great pop rock bands, from The
Replacements to The Smiths –
bands from cold, matter of fact
